An agent with the Hollywood talent agency WME apologized on Wednesday for an inflammatory comment he made in a group chat over the weekend after it was announced that the Israeli military recovered the bodies of six hostages<\/a> who were kidnapped and executed by Hamas terrorists in the Gaza Strip.<\/span><\/p>\n

Brandt Joel \u2014 who represents Jason Momoa, Jonah Hill, Matthew McConaughey, and Kevin Hart, among others \u2013 said during a Zoom meeting with agents in WME\u2019s motion picture department this week that he regrets saying \u201cscrew the left kill all\u201d while commenting on the murder of the six hostages in an unofficial WME, pro-Israel, and Jewish affinity WhatsApp group chat, a source told The Wrap<\/a>. The insider added that Joel also said when he wrote the text, which he deleted minutes later, he was broken-hearted about the murdered hostages<\/a>, but also emotional and irrational due in part to the fact that his son was in Israel last year.<\/span><\/p>\n

Joel \u2014 whose clients also include Ted Danson, Matt LeBlanc, and Justin Timberlake \u2013 said he deleted the comment from the group chat when he realized he had gone too far, the insider noted. The talent agent additionally clarified that his \u201ckill all\u201d comment referred only to the Hamas terrorist organization and said he has spoken with WME leaders about his actions. Joel told his colleagues he will get counseling to help with his impulsive behavior, a source with knowledge of the matter told The Hollywood Reporter.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Joel\u2019s client Mahershala Ali has already been reassigned to a different WME agent following the controversy surrounding the \u201ckill all\u201d text, according to The Hollywood Reporter.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
